Abstract
The large deflection analysis (in the von Karman sense) is used to assess the effects of transverse shear deformation and bending-extension coupling on the behavior of antisymmetrically laminated, cross-ply plates under cylindrical bending. Solutions are presented for uniformly loaded simply supported and clamped plates.
